472949 ÷ 73 
Our goal is to divide 472949 by 73.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 73, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 47 / 73

Moving on to step 2:
73 can be fit into 47 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 47.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 47 leaves us with 47.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 47, then repeat: 472 / 73

Advancing to step 3:
The number 73 fits into 472 6 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtract 438 from 472 to get 34.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 34, then carry on: 349 / 73

On to step 4:
73 can be fit into 349 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 57.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 64.0
If we subtract 292 from 349, we get 57.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 57 and continue with: 574 / 73

Going ahead to step 5:
73 can be fit into 574 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 63.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 647.0
The remainder is 63 after subtracting 511 from 574.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 63, then repeat: 639 / 73

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 73 fits into 639 8 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6478.0
Subtracting 584 from 639 leaves us with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Step 7:
550 divided by 73 is 7 with a remainder of 39.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6478.7
The remainder is 39 after subtracting 511 from 550.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
390 divided by 73 is 5 with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6478.75
Subtracting 365 from 390 leaves us with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
73 goes into 250 3 times with a remainder of 31.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6478.753
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 219 from 250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
73 can be fit into 310 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6478.7534
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 292 from 310.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 180 by 73, we get 2 and a remainder of 34.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6478.75342
Subtract 146 from 180 to get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 340 by 73, we get 4 and a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 6478.753424
Deduct 292 from 340 and we're left with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 13:
If we divide 480 by 73, we get 6 and a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6478.7534246
Subtract 438 from 480 to get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
73 goes into 420 5 times with a remainder of 55.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 6478.75342465
If we take 365 away from 420, we end up with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 6478.75342465 with a balance of 5.5e-08.
